Requirements

• Admin Interface to:
  • enter metadata about graffiti/update information
  • What fields did you want for adding a new graffiti? → We were going to have a form page with all the fields as on the “See more information” page.
  • Create Admin page with Admin view → view site with additional Edit button.

• Generate reports from database → What do you want the reports to return? How are reports different from inscriptions?

• Greatest Hits → what does “our favorites” mean? How do you want the metric for this to be? Most clicks on “See more information”?

• On search page, show how many results, e.g., 6 inscriptions out of 459 → Should be simple enough.

• Allow tags on graffiti for categorization and searching. Are we safe to assume that the tags are subsets of categories?
  • We can do this by creating a dropdown menu of tags under a certain category, with an option for ALL to search all tags in this category.

• API to export data as JSON/XML… → GET call that can search all graffiti by categories/tags to export specific sets of data as well as all data?
  • Our idea is to have two API calls: searchAll (which just returns all graffiti) and search(city, location, category, tag) with the city being the only required parameter.

A very preliminary list of possible tags:

• Animal types: horse, boar, dog, stag/deer
• Geometric shapes: triangle, circle, square, quadrangle
• Boats: rudder, net, hull
• Gladiator equipment: helmet, shield, greaves, net, trident, sword
• Architecture: column, column base, ladder
• Poetry
